I would guess the proportion of younger drivers who smash up Corsa's is higher than those who smash up Astras.

Risk factors, insurers don't tend to use performance as much as a factor as they used to.
Young lad in Corsa = Accident waiting to happen
Young lad in Astra Coupe = Maybe a bit more grown up
Stupid.

Surely other things are taken into account aside from driver risk. Do people steal Corsas more than Astras then?
I remember years ago insurance on my V6 Calibra was considerably less than on my old 1.4 Astra

I can insure an m5 for less than a 182, and a mk4 golf gti turbo for less than my 1.4 Sri. Astra gsi is still more than the golf and Corsa though

Even so, you are a mug to pay £3500 for insuring a Corsa

You'll probably do more than £1400 worth of damage if you crashed into someone, especially if there was some personal injury.
